Longtime Scioto County Resident
FC Daehler Mortuary


It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Dee Jackson, a cherished mother, devoted friend, and compassionate community member, who left us on February 25, 2026, at the age of 56. Born on February 9, 1970, Dee called Portsmouth, Ohio, her home, where she spent over 15 years as an Administrative Assistant for the Portsmouth City Municipal Court. In her role, she touched the lives of many, always bringing her warm spirit and incredible dedication to her work.

Dee had a heart full of love, which she extended far beyond her family. She dedicated herself to uplifting the Scioto County community, working tirelessly with homeless shelters and drug rehabilitation centers. Many have been blessed by her encouraging words and acts of kindness; it was not unusual for her to take phone calls at all hours of the night, always ready to lend an ear or a helping hand.

Her son and daughter in law, Philip and Rose Williams, along with her beloved grandchildren, Erik, Adalie and Emily Williams, who were the lights of her life. They brought her immeasurable joy and laughter, and she adored every moment spent with them. Dee's love for her Wiener dog, Arlo, was a reflection of her nurturing spirit, further adding to the warmth she brought to those around her. She was also survived by a sister Michelle Jackson of Florida and many close friends. She is preceded in death by her parents, Philip and Linda Jackson.

Dee found great strength and solace in her faith, as a proud member of God's House of Piketon, which shaped her values and spirit of giving. Her passion for travel, especially to the beach, served as a testament to her love for life and exploration.

As we celebrate the beautiful life of Dee Jackson, we invite friends and family to gather in her honor. Visitation will be Thursday, March 5, 2026, 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM.
Services will take place immediately following at 6:00 PM, all at FC Daehler Mortuary, 915 Ninth Street, Portsmouth, OH.

Dee Jackson will be deeply missed, but her spirit of love and generosity will forever live on in the hearts of those she touched.
